That very senseless proposition foi

The public oIce more through a letter
addressed to the secretary of the treas
ury by Mr.. +. l.. Andrews. That gen.
tleman proposes that the surplus from
the United States treasury shall be de-
posted in the national banks within
the respective states in proportion to
their representation in congress. But
states that have defaulted on their bonds
to the United States or to other credi-
tors shall lot receive any portion of
the surplus until they have arranged q
settlement, to which their share shall
be applied. This is an extremely
vicious proposition. Tie United States
has nothing whatever to do with the
debts Of states to parties other than to
the federal government, and such a
law might well be the entering wedge
for the absorption of state powers un-
der federal control.

so strong that it is almost akin to con-
tempt for the alleged craftsmanship that
predominates at the national capital.
The refusal Of congress and the execu-
tive departments to deal justly by the
territories has aroused the bitterest and
most pronounced resentment. When
the a closed the Republican party
had thousands of deserving patriots to
take care of. There were hundreds of
poor one.legged and one-armed men
who had earned the gratitude of the
party and the people. They were from
the ranks of half-starved armies on
whose banners were inscribed the record
of marvellous achievements. The pen
sion laws were then in their infancy,
and these MANNED and ragged veterans
had to be cared for. Many of them were
sent to the territories to fill appointlve

thus partially remunerated. In time

tisans who had never heard the whiz Of
a bullet or scented the smoke of pow

asylum for troublesome party hacks.
The patriotism Of the early sixties grew
dim under the partisan llstre of the
seventies. Powder-burnt veterans of
the war were pushed aside by the bosses
and ballot box workers whose potential
aid in elections was so important to po-
litical aspirants.
In all this time the cry of reform "
was heard in the land. Louder and
longer grew the wall, until the echoes,
borne upon the political winds, reached
from ocean to ocean. The people came
to believe that "reform was necessary

COURT HOUSE LOCATION.
Report of the Committee Appoint
ed by the Board.
[OFFICIAL PUBLICATION,

GU Ny CA0 oOdIOs
[OFFICIAL PUBLICATIONS.
The report of the committee appointed
by the board to look up a location for
court and Jail purposes was received at
the regular session of the board on Mon
day, which is as follows:
We, your committee appointed to Sc
lect a location for court house n Jail
purposes, would respectfully report,
That we have done all possible to find a
proper place for the site of q court house
and Jail. The different proposed sitesin-
spected by us are as follows: The pres
ent location of the building used as reg
ister's office and Jail: The south half Of
block 16, being the land north of Fifth
street and east of Kelly avenue and OPP
posite the North Shore bank. The north
half of block 10, lying south of Sixth
street and east of Kelly avenue and OPP
posite the Benham house.
The first location is much too small,
there being only three lots that could be
used and the greatest objection is in its
being to far out from the business center
of the city.
The second location, located opposite,
or nearly so, the North Shore bank, is
one that the committee would be glad to
report favorable on, but owing to the
complicated condition of the ownership
of this site we felt in duty bound to re-
ject this site.
The third location, lying opposite the
Benham house, is the only one, all
we would, at this time, recommend to
the county to buy. This is the only site
upon which we could get a perfect title
at once. The st. P. NJ. e. M. railroad
company, through its attorney, G. l..
Campbell, gave us the following price on
eleven lots in this location as follows
All the north half of block 10 except LOT
4 for $l150. Should the lot 4 be thought
necessary the price of this lot would not
the lots S to IL inclusiye would be all the
land required. This would be 200 feet
east and west by lao north and south and
fronting the court house on Kelly avenue
and the Jail on Sixth street. We be-
lieve the wants of the public would be
as we'll me at this location as at any
other nov attainable. The eight lots
would cost the county, $3.50. we would
recommend the purchase of this las
named site for the reasons above given
